Hi,

This is v2 of the implementation to check for writable and executable pages on
arm64.

Major changes since v1:
- I realized my concerns about initialization and registration were unfounded
  so registration to register page tables with debugfs is simplified.
- New patch to remove max_addr since it was pointed out it was unused.
- Rebased to include changes for the EFI page tables as well.
- Checking is now only done on the init_mm page tables. It was mentioned that
  we should check the hyp page tables as well but that can be follow on work.
- Checking for UXN per suggestion from Mark Rutland.

Laura Abbott (4):
  arm64: dump: Make ptdump debugfs a separate option
  arm64: dump: Make the page table dumping seq_file optional
  arm64: dump: Remove max_addr
  arm64: dump: Add checking for writable and exectuable pages
